Happy Independence Day!!

I managed to get a quick hour in this afternoon while Brit was giving the doggies baths (they STUNK from swimming in a pond earlier today).  The wear blocks are for the seatbelt cables where they come thru the baggage bulkhead cover.  Here's the "kit" as it comes from Van's-

Several pieces of plastic, a strip of AL, and some LP4-3's are there.  The plastic and AL get drilled and trimmed to this-

And here are a few pics of the installation-

This is the view looking thru from the front.  I'm not terribly concerned that the 'key hole' is not smooth...they will be rubbed by the cable anyway.

I probably won't work on the airplane tomorrow (we're going to try and fly the Cub...weather permitting), but tomorrow is my 2 year anniversary of starting this project.  So far, I'm pretty much on schedule, perhaps slightly ahead...

1.0 hour
